This is, along with lots of other design changes over the years, a direct result of the growth of the industry. The majority of people who play video games today spend a lot less time so than the average in here. But, I agree, it's incredibly annoying. Kudos to developers who add "skip tutorial" functions to their games. Things like "Alternate start - live another life" for Skyrim was also a huge step in the right direction when it released (it's a mod, one of the most downloaded ones of all time for the game).
